August Blog Hop – Summer Meets Spooky!

Summer is still in full swing, and we’re soaking up every bit of sunshine, warm evenings and those long summer days…

But wait… did you see that?!
Every now and then, a little ghost seems to pop up! Yes, it may still feel like summer, but Halloween is slowly creeping closer… and before we know it, it will be time for pumpkins, ghosts, bats and all things spooky! 🎃🦇👻

So for our August Blog Hop, I decided to mix the best of both worlds: a little summer sunshine with a tiny spooky twist! 🌞👻

I used this summer Boxcard SVG or Silhouette


I did cut off 1 of the swimsuits

I replaced the swimsuit with a little ghost from one of Loris cute Halloween files SVG or SILHOUETTE

This month I created a baby card, because I’m completely in a grandma-to-be vibe right now… I’m becoming a grandma in June!!! 💙
It’s such an exciting time, and of course I couldn’t resist making a sweet card to celebrate the arrival of a little one.

For this project, I made a baby boy card in a fun Z-fold style.
I love how interactive this type of card is it gives you a little something extra compared to a standard card, and it’s perfect for showcasing all those adorable baby elements.
I used sweet colors to make it extra special for welcoming a baby boy.

Lori Whitlock April Blog Hop!

Thanks for stopping by during this April blog hop!
This month, I created something cute and fun to celebrate Easter: a chick-shaped Easter lantern!

SVG single file or bundle / SILHOUETTE

I made two versions, a boy and a girl.
For the girl version, I added a sweet little detail: the bow is taken from Lori Whitlock’s lamb lantern file.
It’s a small touch, but it gives the chick an extra charming look!

These little lanterns make perfect springtime decorations, and you can even pop a small LED light inside to bring them to life.
They’re sure to add a joyful, handmade touch to any Easter celebration!

Make sure to hop along to the next stop in the blog hop, there’s so much lovely inspiration to discover!

Lori Whitlock | Februari Blog Hop

Hello Crafty friends!
Welcome to the Lori Whitlock February Blog Hop!

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, I couldn’t resist making this month’s projects all about love. February 14th is the perfect occasion to show appreciation for the special people in our lives, and what better way to do that than with a handmade card?

Creating cards is one of my favorite things to do. Whether it’s for a partner, family member, or dear friend, a handmade card always brings a smile. I had so much fun crafting these designs using Lori Whitlock’s Flexi card files.

Get your files here SVG / SILHOUETTE ( When you search in silhouette studio for ” Flexi card ” then you will find a bunch of cards).

I love the idea of surprising my loved ones with a little paper-crafted happiness. A beautifully designed card with a personal touch can make someone’s day extra special.

I hope this inspires you to craft something lovely for the people you cherish. Wishing you all a wonderful Valentine’s Day filled with love, joy, and creativity!

Don’t forget the sale!

November Blog Hop 2024 – Snowman Giftbag

Crafting a Festive Treat Bag for My Son’s Classmates, was on my to do list…

With the holiday season just around the corner, I was on the hunt for a unique way to spread some cheer at my youngest son’s school Christmas dinner. I wanted to create something fun and festive for his classmates to take home, and that’s when I found a project that was so cute, I had to make it. Lori’s designs are always a joy to work with, and this treat bag is no exception.

For this project, I used my Silhouette Cameo 5, paired with an electrostatic mat for cutting. The end result was a set of adorable, holiday-themed treat bags – perfect for candy and a little gift.

You can find the design here:
single SVG or bundle SVG / SILHOUETTE

As you can see, the bundle has 3 very cute gift bags in it.

Lori Whitlock Creative Team September 2024 Blog Hop!

Hello crafty friends, Welcome to the September 2024 blog hop!

School started a week ago, we had a few summer days last week, but that’s all over now, it is getting colder and started to rain… Perfect time to start working on Fall projects! I spotted this cute pumpkin in Lori her shop, and decided it fits perfectly for this time of the year!

This one I sold separately and in a bundle, the one I made is the “3D Pumpkin Vines”.
Go to the files SVG/SILHOUETTE or go for the Bundle.

It is so beautiful when it’s getting dark!

This pumpkin is again easy to make, its done in less then 20 minutes.
Inside the pumpkin I used vellum that I collared with Distress ink, to make it less white and give it a warmer shine.
